Display of local activity using dynamical speckle patterns

We present a display to distinguish loci of equal activity in samples showing dynamic speckle patterns. Regions differing in their activity are shown as different gray levels. We define the generalized differences and the weighted generalized difference operations and we compare the results with previously reported methods. Results obtained with seeds are shown.
